@ping7507, At the risk of appearing to just be playing the contrarian; why must it be a model S550e? For example; is it possible that a new face plate was put on an older amp? I'm not trying to challenge your assertion, but rather trying to understand the cause for your certainty.
A question for fans of Threshold amplifiers
I'm very lucky to be able to hear numerous highly regarded solid state amplifiers in my home because I do professional reviewing. In the last year I have been able to acquire three pristine re-capped E-series Threshold amplifiers. These are a S/350e, S/550e, and a SA/4e. When compared to some of the most highly regarded/high price amplifiers on today's market, not only did they hold there own, but particularly the S/550e/SA/4e, I found to be superior in my system.
It has been a long time since any threads have discussed any Threshold amplifiers at all. So, I'm curious if there are any GON members who use any of the Threshold E-series amps and what your experience has been at comparing them to current production amplifiers.
